Hey guys and girls !

Just picked up the ride after having the unichip fitted to the 3lt 98 TF Magna 177,000 kms and its developing 126Kw's at the wheels !

The manufacturer boasts 124Kw's at the wheels so have a few extra !

Mid range power a burst and it reves straight through the gear changes with out hesitation which is a contrast from before and their is a crispness accross the whole throttle range !

The 90ks thru to 125 ks when it changes from 2nd into 3rd gear (auto) has a definite extra boost !

Is it worth the $1,400 to have it fitted... ? We will see as I have more seat time ! :rant:

Greg

Nice one. At least you have the chip now so any extra mods you add will only require an hour or two dyno time to get the absolute most out of them.

Got a dyno sheet?

u mean KW's dont u ? ... good number from a 3L

u mean KW's dont u ? ... good number from a 3L

No Im reading it right !!

The Dyno sheet is in HP !

126 horse power at the wheels !

Whats the conversion... does any one have a scientific calculator ?

Greg

126hp = 94kW

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm that really dosnt sound right ... has to be something up with that, either dyno not reading thew power right or ur car isnt putting out what it should be :S

126hp = 94kW

I be reading it wrong ! ! :redface:

That el learn ya ! :rant:

A standard 3lt puts out 94 KW's

With extractors high flow cat 2.5" exhaust straight thru muflers and a K & N pannel filtter and now a unichip it has to be more than the 94kw standard !!! :nuts:

So I is reading it wrong !

Greg

wellllll UNDER8D .. puts out like 115KW's atws or something at last dyno day ( which should equate to 150 HP atws or there abouts ? ) from memeory only had extracots zorst and pod .. .....


i know different dyno different day = varied results but that is a VERY different result

hmmm i dunno its a weird one :S

I hear what your saying !

It doesnt sound right but their is a dyno day comming up so might attend that to see !

If the other 3ltr did 115 Kw's with extraxtors exhaust and pod (the same as me) then 126Kw's from mine after the unichip is fitted sounds about right from what I was told I should gain about 12 kws !

Greg

nodz my 3L auto has hi-tech extractors and lukey muffler puts out 116fwkw or 155 fwhp :) so if yours has all that.. and the chip! i see it pulling at least 163fwhp?

that seems really low dude

i have exuahst and extrators yada yada and i got 150 hp without any chip
and 220hp with nos

[B]

Thanks guys was reading it wrong then !

Its 3lt V6 126kw's-169hp ATW.

tell me more about the noss you have fitted ?

Take it down the 1/4 and you will find out what your real HP value is by the trap speed..

But your's is manual and he has an auto, so you would expect your car to put down more power.

My old 3.0 auto put down 110kW with cat back exhaust and unichip (I expect my manual to pull about this figure stock).

Dont need a sceintific calculator dude(normal one will do) horsepower times by .746 will give you the kws !!!! :D

so yeh seems bout right then

LOL...1 Kw = 1,36 HP

1kw = 1.34hp

1kw = 1.34hp

I can be picky too:

1 kilowatt = 1.341022092 hp

:bowrofl: :bowrofl:

2 kw is not much. I was thinking u should get more from unichip?Is that normal?

2 kw is not much. I was thinking u should get more from unichip?Is that normal?

depends on the car and the mods..


It must be giving you something though.. thats the point of the chip.. so you can justify your mods..

mine was 131kw ATW stock and was 136KW atw once we put the haltech in..

the only mod was the exhaust which went 1 into 2 out the back standard side.. loosing back pressure so would have more if i left it standard..:P

i wouldn't worry about the dyno figure at all. if it does everything better than before and your happy with the results then that is all that matters.

with my unichip i was wacking out 155kw at the wheels, then 161kw at the wheels at one dyno, then went to another and got 141kw's (all dyno runs on stock 17's, not the 20's)

every dyno is different and you can only compare cars at dyno day events.

as long as your happy, and great choice going the unichip :D

Hey man.How much kw u got at fw? Did u do a 1/4? If u did what is result?

Hey man.How much kw u got at fw? Did u do a 1/4? If u did what is result?

No I have not done the 1/4 mile yet as the 1/4 mile drags in perth are comming up soon !

I had the 3lt TF V6 auto fitted with the uni chip yesterday !

I already had the extractors High flow steel cat 2.5" exhaust and high flow muflers plus the pannel filter so the Kw was high to start with but I do note the throttle response and added exceleration under foot but "NOT" the whip lash I thought tho in accordance with the specs unichip put out !

But I will do a 1/4 mile and see what the auto does !

Im doing the waneroo race meet on the 31 march also !

Ill keep you informed !

I do note their was so much debate on which brand chip piggy back or computer to go with that it really was confusing !

Yeah, don't expect massive gains form fitting a chip unless you have some seriouse modifications and the car isn't running right without a re-tune.

But you will notice a much smoother power delivery and that little bit of extra urge in your case. My auto TF used to sprint pretty fast from about 70-120 on a nice chilled night, it was in it's ellement on the highway. It could keep up with a few more powerfull cars on the run.

unichip has done wonders with my car for the track.
a stock car will run a 14.7 (claimed) and with the chip and exhaust has made my car run a 14.006 @ 98.15mph. thats a huge gain in anyones mind so this bloke should chop at least half a second off his time with the this modification

Yes i am waiting our (perth) 1/4 mile day to see what she does !
thanks for your input

Half a second is a big jump for an auto. He might be lucky though.

With all the bolt ons im doing more than half a second quicker than stock so with the chip it would be better still !

Besides as long as you go hard who gives a flying f#c& !

I was talking about the Unichip alone. With the other stuff I'd be hoping for over half a second too.

Oh, what's a high flow steel cad?

Oh, what's a high flow steel cad?cad (khttp://img.tfd.com/hm/GIF/abreve.gifd) n. A man whose behavior is unprincipled or dishonorable.



So a high flow steel scum-bag, basically. An evil robot maybe?

Hahaha... you guys are funny. So, how is it integrated with your exhaust system?

bender built it.....
unless its a high flow stainless steel cat lol..... but the only cats i like r dead ones :D
